    We went 2/3 on Aolean Scimitars over the weekend. We tried the THM method the first two times, which got the drop and the two tank method on the 3rd time, and we got no drop. Broke the arm all three times. No sleeves in any of the three.

    Why are you using two tanks post-nerf? You should only be using one. Are you using low rank players or something?

    You gotta admit pre-nerf you needed 4 tanks, 6 THMs, and 5 ARCs or you had no chance, don't blame Molly for using a version of the old-school strategy.

    I tanked all the goblins at once pre-nerf with my MRD. It was possible. The NMs weren't that hard to begin with, anyway.

    I think you missed his sarcasm :P

    I (successfully) tanked all the gobs at once on our first ever attempt (way before the nerf) but a lot of our DPS were too fragile for the multi-bomb tosses so we switched to a different strategy after that. Post-nerf now it's just a huge joke and anyone having trouble with 1 non-emulate tank is doing something seriously wrong.

    Sarcasm? Raikki you know I'm always serious when talkin' NMs.

    In all honesty, we used to trio gob before the nerf without emulate(not a gloat, just a laugh at how simple it was). I remember looking at the posts before the NMs came out and looking at the pic of the glad in front of the buffalo and thinking "Finally! Tough content!". Oh, how naive I was.

    We use two tanks because it's easy. One for the NM and one for the adds. My strategies work so stfu. In the end that's what matters, not what others think of my strategies.

    The set up you use doesnt influence drop rate if thats what your trying to imply, such as using a thm tank vs a gla tank

    No it doesn't. However, the strategy does affect how quickly you beat him and thus how many times per day you can fight him which can leadto more drops in the end.
